Our experience with Tinky's has been great and I'm hoping that when my daughter moves on to reception class is that she'll have a similar standard of care and environment. Tinky's is a brand new nursery that checks all the marks and they have an onsite chef and kitchen but their main asset is the staff that work there. I can see the level of care and love everyone gives to my daughter in Tinky's despite her tantrums. That says a lot and no amount of monetary value can compare to that. I'd highly recommend Tinky's to any parent.
Outstanding nursery! My child has been attending the toddler room since October and he is moving to the preschool room, as he’s 3 now. I am so pleased with the nursery. I feel very confident leaving my son there and he is always asking me when he is going again. All the staff are really caring and understanding and are also great with feedback. I can see he has developed extremely well in just 3 months! Don’t even hesitate in sending your child here.
My daughter has been attending Tinky's nursery since April of this year. She is two years old and is in the toddlers' room. I am very pleased with the nursery - the staff are caring and attentive, the management keep us regularly informed and above all, my daughter loves attending.
My little one has started nursery at Tinky’s about 3 weeks ago and I must say everyone has been amazing. My daughter is so happy and learning new things every day. Thank you to all the amazing staff.
So happy to have chosen Tinky's for our twins! They have good facilities for the children's development. Clean, bright and airy; a perfect environment for children. The staff are good, friendly and very accommodating. They provide regular reports and updates, assuring parents of the care our children receive. I have seen the impact of attending a good nursery on my children, they have become friendly, comfortable and interactive with people.
My son goes here and we couldn't be happier. He always asks me over the weekend when he's going back to nursery to see all his teachers and peers. They organise a lot of activities for the children and their meals are delicious (my son always has seconds!) They are great with drop offs and pick up and understand working parents' struggles which makes life so much easier. Thank you Tinky's!
Great nursery! The staff are all very lovely and caring, excellent communication from the staff and a very clean nursery. My daughter has gained so much confidence since joining. I am very happy with this nursery.
Tinky's has been wonderful to my daughter. We were worried about her attachment issues but after 3 days, she was happy to go to "school" every day with no tantrums and no tears. All carers are wonderful, friendly and give attention to each child's needs. Also, they were very understanding in letting her have her lil comforter bear so now it's part of their class. They have become a part of our family. She calls them her Aunties. The rooms are very clean and neat too! Overall, I am happy we found Tinky's!
Our experience with the nursery has been outstanding. Our little one moved from another nursery post-pandemic, and the team have been exemplary during his settling period. ‘Mums’ away from home, the staff had him settled within a few sessions, compared to his previous nursery, where months later I would find myself dropping and collecting a very miserable child. Quite naturally I was worried my child would struggle again in a new setting, but credit to the nursery, they have flipped both mine and my little one’s experience of nurseries! I do not look forward to moving him to school soon, as he loves it so much. I cannot thank the staff enough in their caring and genuine passion towards handling my son. He looks forward to going in and is extremely happy when I pick him up - and that is the crux of what every parent wants at that age.
From the first settle session I left feeling happy and content our son was safe and in great hands.
Our son looks forward to his days at Tinkys and I feel comfortable at work knowing he is enjoying himself and looked after.
I believe he will thrive and be supported and encouraged with the support of the staff.
Every member of staff I have dealt with has been a delight. I am so glad we chose Tinkys.
We just moved to the UK a few months ago and I looked at several nurseries that just didn't seem right. My son doesn't speak any English and has separation anxiety after long months at home with us. Tinky's Day Nursery took him in with such love! He loves it there. They are open and communicative, share his day with us, helped us with funding and understanding of the way nurseries work here. Every kid goes in and comes out with a huge smile and it's so great to see.
My boy has been attending the daycare only for a month and surprisingly for his parents he just never stops asking if he is going back tomorrow. I believe this the highest recommendation of the institution spoken by its little member. Thank you Tinky’s Day Nursery for taking such good care of our precious little boy.
I was looking for a nice environment and found Tinkys.
My daughter has a big smile when she arrives at the nursery.
They give a report at the end of the day saying how her day was, which is usually very positive.
I chose Tinky's Day Nursery because it is an independently run, newly opened nursery, close to where I live. Extra curricular activities are included in the fee and when Covid-19 regulations came in, you had the flexibility of dropping off early and late without extra fees or penalties. This isn't something you find with other nurseries. I have had experience with two different nurseries with my other children and you get more of a personal one on one experience with Tinky's Day Nursery, which I personally haven't experienced anywhere else. The staff are professional and the nursery is well ran with a great balanced food menu. They go above and beyond for the children and parents. I would highly recommend Tinky's Day Nursery to anyone looking for a safe and secure environment for their child.
My son started in January. We found the staff be caring and patient, both important attributes given to our child. When I come here there is a warm feeling and all the staff are friendly. I have full confidence in them when I leave my little one in the mornings. Great learning place.
I really recommend Tinky’s Day Nursery.
Great nursery! The staff are committed and caring, excellent communication from the staff and a lovely, clean nursery. My daughter is so happy here and has learnt so much since joining the nursery. My daughter has gained so much confidence since joining.
Extremely high level of safety for the children. Very friendly, approachable and professional staff who go the extra miles to meet the needs of children and carers.
High level of hygiene and well-maintained premises.
Feedback on daily basis is offered, and staff ensure there's consistency in this which is quite informative for the purpose of development and progression of the children.
We are really happy with Tinky's nursery. My daughter feels very safe, and she always wants to come back. Especially, she is in love with her teachers. Thanks for your care and support.
Great Nursery! Sending you daily and monthly report of your child’s meals, activities, progress and feedbacks. Very warm, friendly and caring staff. Also, the management is responsive and approachable. My daughter really enjoys her time at the nursery.

When I first graduated I began working in a nursery as a nursery practitioner and gradually worked my way up to become a manager. Throughout this journey, I have gained invaluable skills and knowledge from various professionals that I am proud to share with my staff team.
I am committed to providing a safe, fun and stimulating environment for all children in my setting. My dedicated staff team and I are passionate about sparking children's creativity, imagination and curiosity through carefully planned learning opportunities.
I have always worked in the Early Years sector and I believe that there is nothing more rewarding than watching children thrive and reach their full potential.
